Deadly Misconduct

Lifetime movies are a genre unto themselves and this is a decent example of the genre. For me, the movie loses points on its odd (and shockingly ridiculous) premise, but other than that it's an entertaining watch for fans of lifetime movies.

This is just a horrible movie all around. The acting is atrocious; whoever did the casting for this movie did a horrible job bc the main character/actor is not a good fit for this movie (off topic, the woman's voice makes my skin crawl). It is actually almost unwatchable. No one would actually behave this way and if someone's family or children was threatened/watched/stalked, I would imagine more measures would be taken than what happened in this headache of a "movie". It's a waste of time; if you want to wonder what horrible casting/acting looks like then watch this one.

Like many of these Lifetime thrillers, the stage is set early and the characters who are the significant players are introduced early; it was unfortunately pretty obvious what was what far too early. In other words, no surprises and turned out as expected.

Improprety is a bit of an odd one. Annie sagan is a rising prosocuter, whos daughter wants to do youtube despite probably being able to actually have money. A guy thats her rival called doug spends the night with her, which she for some reason agrees to. Guess what though the guy ends up waking up dead, leaving annie to figure out what happened to him . She also has her daughters father mark hanging around and man is he one strange looker he just screams bad duju. Theres never any real go with this film, the investigation is not really there and the threat also does not exist. The villian is not great either but the actress that plays annie was not to bad so theres that, overall not really a great film.

I honestly named the killer in the first 10 minutes, possibly less. I have, over the years, seen some very credible Lifetime movies but this may be the worst I have ever seen.

The story is incredibly unbelievable and the main character has to be either very stupid or very naive. There are at least a half a dozen times I said "call 911".... and, of course, she didn't. And, according to the story line, she has never lost a case.

As for the other story thread, another "call 911" situation, she treats it as no big deal, even though it can involve a danger to someone close to her, as well as she, herself.

I blame my criticism on the script and I always finish movies I have started. That said, I came close to shutting this one down. If the story is too hard to take seriously, the rest of the viewing experience is bound to suffer.
